At least 15 people are dead and 24 others are injured after a gunman opened fire at a school in central Russia on Monday morning.
It happened at a school in Izhevsk, the Udmurtia region’s capital. The shooter reportedly killed a guard and multiple children, according to the governor of the Udmurtia region, Alexander Brechalov.
Russia's Investigative Committee says the shooter was wearing a t-shirt with "Nazi symbols" during the attack.
"There are victims among the children, there are wounded too," Brechalov said.
